Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 517 Experiment Successful

[Title Page Story:]

Hidden Cloud Village, Raikage's Office:

The Fourth Raikage frowned as he looked at the information his subordinate had reported, muttering to himself:

What major event has happened in Kirigakure recently? Why are all the able-bodied men in the village mobilized?

Huh? Wait a minute! They're all men, and young adults at that...

*Hiss... Is Kirigakure preparing to wage war?! Against whom? Never mind, no matter who they're against, Kumogakure's best course of action is to prepare defenses.*

……

Inside the inner city of Konoha, at Yuya's home:

Tsunade stared at Orochimaru with deadpan eyes: "Have you been asking for a beating lately?"

Orochimaru smiled slightly: "I know you won't agree, Tsunade, so I'm proposing another solution."

Orochimaru licked his lips and said, "Mitsuki will definitely be sentenced to death for betraying the village. In that case, why not use his life as material for the Impure World Reincarnation and resurrect the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju?"

Yuya was taken aback, lowered his head to think for a moment, and then asked, "Are you planning to directly infuse the Six Paths Chakra into my master's body? But is it really possible for my master, who was created through Edo Tensei, to be someone other than the real person?"

Orochimaru looked at Yua with shining eyes and said, "Theoretically, it's possible! Those experimental subjects of the Six Paths Chakra should be fused with the First Hokage's chakra to some extent. As long as the Impure World Reincarnation is successful, then theoretically, given enough time, we can create an unlimited number of Six Paths Chakra."

You Ya's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

It must be said that he was tempted.

Tsunade, however, was dissatisfied: "How can you guarantee an unlimited supply of Six Paths chakra? My grandfather's cell count is not..."

Orochimaru! You've been secretly cultivating my grandfather's cells?!

Tsunade glared angrily at Orochimaru with her big eyes.

Orochimaru did not deny it, nor did he think it would be meaningful to deny such a thing.

Licking his lips, Orochimaru chuckled, "After I resurrect the First Hokage, I'll explain things to him. What if the First Hokage agrees to let me study his cells for the sake of the village? If he agrees, Tsunade, you, his granddaughter, should have nothing to say, right?"

Tsunade gritted her teeth.

But he didn't know how to refute Orochimaru.

Yuya thought about it carefully and nodded to Orochimaru: "I agree to this experiment. My master died young and never enjoyed anything good. It would be good for him to come up here and take a stroll and see the changes in Konoha Village."

Orochimaru nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Impure World Reincarnation actually has a fatal flaw.

That means the people who emerge from the wasteland are made from human bodies, and they must be living people.

In other words, this is a ninjutsu that trades one life for another.

The dead cannot obtain food in the mortal world, so even if the dead eat and drink a lot in the mortal world, it will not replenish their body's energy.

Therefore, after seven days, the people from the underworld who have been reborn from the impure world will return to the underworld.

Because a person will become extremely weak if they don't eat or drink for seven days, and will die on the eighth day.

The resurrected beings cannot exist forever; this is the biggest weakness of this ninjutsu, but it is only a weakness.

In reality, this weakness makes little difference whether it exists or not.

That's why Orochimaru used the Impure World Reincarnation as an experimental ninjutsu.

Yuya never imagined that the first and second Hokage would be resurrected to work for him while he went off to have fun.

This was simply impossible.

Not to mention that both of these powerful figures can remove the effects of the commands imposed by the Impure World Reincarnation jutsu.

Being a test subject is certainly not a problem.

So, Yuya had Minato Namikaze lead the team to protect Orochimaru's experiments, while he and Tsunade accompanied Orochimaru to the Forest of Death.

As Orochimaru placed Mizuki on the ground, ignoring the latter's terrified eyes and whimpering cries for help, Orochimaru immediately began to activate the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

With his mouth bound, Mizuki could only close his eyes in despair before his consciousness completely vanished from the world.

I wonder if he regretted betraying Konoha before he died.

I suppose I won't regret it.

Because these kinds of people never regret what they've done; they only regret that they're going to die.

A moment later, covered by something resembling sand, a different person appeared inside.

Hashirama Senju, with cracks on his face.

"Huh, why did you call me out again?"

Edo Tensei Hashirama looked around, then turned to Yua and asked, "Something happened to the village? But that doesn't make sense. If something happened, it shouldn't just be me, the one who was Edo Tensei."

You Ya nodded: "Something has indeed happened. There's something that only you can do, Master."

Edo Tensei Hashirama's expression immediately changed. He looked at Yua and said in a deep voice, "Every time you call me 'master,' you're just trying to fool me. I didn't hold it against you when I was alive, but now that I'm dead... so stop trying to trick your master!"

Orochimaru and Tsunade both looked at Yua with strange expressions.

Youya coughed and said, "I gave you those inferior gold pieces to take to the casino and then turned them back to their original state just to make you understand the dangers of gambling. Yes, that's it."

Okay, let's talk about what I asked you to do.

The reanimated Hashirama broke down: "You just wanted to see me make a fool of myself! I figured that out a long time ago!"

Yuya scoffed and looked at Tsunade.

Tsunade nodded and clenched her fist.

Edo Tensei Hashirama immediately cowered: "What are you planning to do by calling me out here? Let me make this clear first, I'm not helping to fill in as Hokage! I haven't had my fill of being cool yet."

You Ya's lips twitched. Damn it, his chance to speak was cut off beforehand.

Orochimaru stepped forward and began to explain the current situation.

After hearing this, Edo Tensei Hashirama's expression turned ashen.

Squatting in the corner, amidst the filthy pillars, he sadly drew circles: "My granddaughter and her apprentice have teamed up to use this old man as a test subject..."

It's so tough...

This is too much for me...

Yuya crossed his arms and looked at the reanimated Hashirama. After thinking for a moment, he said, "For this week, I'll give you a limit of 100 million ryo. You can go and have a good time in Konoha's Golden Castle, okay?"

Edo Tensei Hashirama immediately jumped up: "Deal! Come on, what experiment? Let's begin, don't waste time."

Tsunade: "..."

Orochimaru: "..."

I always feel...

The filter is shattered all over the place...

……

The next day, Orochimaru reported to Yua that the experiment was a great success. As expected, both Hashirama cells and Hashirama chakra could be fused with the Six Paths chakra.

In this way... the mass production of Six Paths Chakra can be put on the agenda.

The ninja clans of Konoha Village...

They'll probably fight tooth and nail for those shares.

You Ya suddenly remembered the dinner party a few days ago, and a funny expression appeared on his face.

He was really looking forward to seeing what kind of trouble these guys would cause over these shares.
